2008 VE SS
I had sort of the opposite problem the other day X-man - went to manually turn my fan down and it went to flat-out! Kinda funny - made one hell of a roaring noise :surprise:

Was planning to pull over and do the 'master reset', but after randomly pressing buttons it all started working again. Probaly a Windoze problem I suspect...

****ing Windows 98!!!!

Plastic sides of the console. (Broken clips)
Front windscreen rubbers seems to be flaking/cracking off ? Sun damage I guess.

Oh, another thing... The black plastic thing at the bottom of the windscreen on the outside is curling so it's not flat on the glass.

Thought I'd get on in on the gravy train :D

Purchased my E2 Clubsport May 2010 and had the following:
- Broken clips on the side of the console, suspect this is being a big fella pushing the seat against the console but it's broken again.
- Sounds like a speaker rattle coming from the rear passenger door
- Rattling front calipers, re-work done and not a problem since
- Keys wouldn't unlock the car, re-programmed and updated something on the car and it's been good as gold since

Someone pointed out a knocking sound yesterday, have heard it a few times before when cold but will keep an eye on it as it's due for it's first service now.

This thread makes me sad.

Problems for me so far are.

Water leak into cabin from under fron windshield, holden replaced something, hasnt happend since, wouldnt want to lift up the passenger side carpet though I think.

Random no starting issue, Holden could'nt find the problem hasnt happend since.

Paint quality is shite, paint chips if given enough of an excuse, whole front end is chipped to sin from locasts of all thing's, bonnet protector solved this a little.

That's all to date, due for its 90,000klm service in a month or so.
